When we start 2025 and the shift from voluntary to mandatory reporting of sustainability data kicks in, all accounting professionals will feel the impact.
Per this article, from SEC Climate Reporting to ESG Documentation, to Supply Chain Information Requests, to Scope 3, big and small accounting firms will be taxed with the impact of sustainability demands.
This brings us to a post we did a while back, where we question how well accounting firms are going to be in providing guidance on a topic most have never experienced.
If you really want to differentiate your accounting firm from the competition, and give good advice to your clients, walk the talk, like this CPA firm – become a certified sustainable business and add street smarts to book smarts.

You will benefit and your clients will benefit.
